A5              B5            E5     
Well, He cried when He was hungry
A5            B5              E5
Did all the things that babies do
   A5               B5           C#5
He rocked and He napped on His mother?s lap
 A5                                B5
And He wiggled and giggled and cooed
                 A5           B5            E5
There were the cheers when He took His first step,
          A5           B5              E5
And the tears when He got His first teeth;
       A5             B5            C#5
Almost everything about this little baby
       A5                      B5
Seemed as natural as it could be.

   B5           E5                A5
But this baby made the angels sing,
    B5           E5                A5
And this baby made a new star shine in the sky.
     B5          E5      A5          C#5
This baby had come to change the world.
A5    E5         B5       C#5      A5   E5        B5             C#5
This baby was God?s own son, this baby was like no other one.
A5     E5        B5       C#5    A5
This baby was God with us, this baby was Jesus.
A5       B5                   E5
And this baby grew into a young boy,
     A5          B5                      E5
Who learned to read and write and wrestle with dad;
      A5           B5                 E5
There was the climbin? of trees and the scrapin? of knees,
   A5                                  B5
And all the fun that a boy?s born to have.
   A5                 B5            E5
He grew taller and some things started changing,
   A5                 B5           E5
Like His complexion and the sound of His voice;
   A5                  B5          C#5
There was work to be done as a carpenter?s son
     A5                           C#5
And all the neighbors said He?s such a fine boy.

chorus
   C#5                         A5
And love made Him laugh and death made Him cry.
   Bb5                         B5
With the life that He lived and the death that He died,
   C#5                        C#5
He showed us heaven with His hands and His heart,
    A5    E5            B5      C#5
?Cause this man was God?s own son.
     A5     E5       B5     C#5
This man was like no other one,
     A5      E5      B5      C#5
Holy and human right from the start.

(chorus)

This baby was God with us, this baby, this baby was Jesus; this baby was Jesus, 
this baby was Jesus.
